Peter the Great and the Moscow Massacre 1698
Peter the Great planned a foreign knowledge mission in 1697 and faced Strelitz opposition. After a banquet plot, he executed two leaders with brutal torture after a swift confrontation, then led a purge of 7000 Strelitz, decimating troops and placing heads on a column. A medal commemorated the executions with Latin inscriptions.
